North Luzon Expressway regulars, take note: You'll have to shell out more in toll fees starting Tuesday, May 18, after the Toll Regulatory Board authorized the tollway corporation to implement a 2% to 3% toll increase on the thoroughfare.
The toll increase will take effect at 12:01 a.m. on May 18. Class 1 vehicles will have to pay P2 more in the open system (flat rate is charged per entry), VAT included, and P6 more to use the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) from end to end. Class 2 and 3 vehicles must pay an additional P3 and P4 in the open system, respectively, and P14 and P16 for end-to-end travel.
In a statement, the NLEX Corporation explained that this toll increase was several years in the making, as it is part of approved adjustments that were due in 2012 and 2014.
"[The [Toll Regulatory Board] and NLEX agreed to implement the increase on a staggered basis to cushion the impact of the adjustments," the statement reads, adding that the company is continually improving NLEX to provide motorists with a safer and more seamless expressway experience up north.
Make sure your RFIDs have enough load for when this increase takes effect! Road trips are a huge chunk of our post-pandemic travel dreams so be sure to take note.
